Match Report – Premier Div 1 Reserves Vs North Pine
Ressies 1st Div Vs Nth Pine
Sunday saw us host North Pine at home, and while our finals hopes ended 2 weeks earlier, the visitors still had their eye on the the last qualifying spot.

Match Report – Premier Div 1 Reserves Vs Western Spirit
Grange 2, Western Spirit 2
Unfortunately, our trip to Goodna was yet another chapter in a season of missed opportunities. Once again, we controlled the game and created a bag of scoring chances, only to walk away with point.
The 1st half saw several players revelling in the good conditions on a superb pitch. Gareth was controlling the tempo in a central position, with Chris Zamitt and Sam Xinis causing problems in the wide roles. The defence rarely looked troubled, other than the threat of set play pressure where Spirit looked dangerous in the air.

The Metro 4’s travelled to Elder Oval on Saturday afternoon, with a number of guys backing up from the previous night’s game. Annerley only joined the metro 4 competition in the second round, so little was known about this side.
